A leading jeans manufacturer goes smaller to be better.
Apparel manufacturing is entering a new era where quality, not quantity, is the new "gold standard" for orders. Until recently, manufacturers vied for bigger orders, with the focus on volume – at any cost. That's starting to change.
Quantity still counts, but quality (manufacturing premium products) determines who will survive in today's tough manufacturing environment. The factories that are skilled at making premium apparel are slated to be the survivors in this cut throat industry.
Union Apparel recognized the shift in the market and evolved its business to be able to service the demands of the premium denim market. The Hong Kong-based jeanswear manufacturer adapted its business model to become an expert in the manufacturer of selvage denim jeans, which includes being able to accept very small minimums.
"We're very flexible, we can do all size orders," said Philip Law, managing director, commenting on a business strategy that might appear counter intuitive in a region that has made its fortune as the go-to place for big volume production.
His strategy is paying off and 2011 will be a record year for Union Apparel. "We have 40 customers doing medium to small orders. When you group them all together, it's a good business," said Mr. Law.
"We are now building a model factory that will cater to the more constructed, super premium market and we are training our staff to be very skillful with vintage, premium jeanswear," he said.
Union Apparel's "artisan" factory, to be located in Shunde in Southern China, will employ just 200 workers, tiny compared with the thousands of workers most factories employ. However the factory will have more flexibility and enable the company to accept orders of as little as 300-500 pieces, ideal for the high end jeanswear market.
"Automation is a capital investment that enables you to be more efficient. However these days the margins [on volume orders] are so small that it's not enough simply to streamline your production processes. Today you need to be able to produce more innovative, high end products in order to stay in the business," he added.
The factory will provide a more congenial work environment than typical facilities, something that is critical these days both in terms of retaining workers, as well as meeting overseas buyers' demands for Social Responsibility and Compliance.
"We're known for our wet processing," said Mr. Law. The artistic nature of this process is better suited to a smaller operation. Each [final garment] is unique. A standard QC person could not handle the inspection of these orders. You need a highly trained person who understands these finishes.
"We've been subscribing to Inside Fashion for a very long time. We find the comparative information on various sourcing locations very useful. Inside Fashion gives us a world market view, covering both the movement of key brands as well as the sourcing side.
With its eye on the premium denim market, Union Apparel has also toyed with its own apparel brand. "We might re-launch our own brand, however in the near term our design efforts will be focused on contributing ideas to our customers," said Mr. Law.


The Cumulative List will primarily be used by single employer individually designed defined contribution plans and single employer individually designed defined benefit plans that are in Cycle E.
In Notice 2014-77, the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) has provided the 2014 Cumulative List of Changes in Plan Qualification Requirements to be used by plan sponsors and practitioners submitting determination letter applications for plans during the period beginning February 1, 2015, and ending January 31, 2016.
Plans using this Cumulative List will primarily be single employer individually designed defined contribution plans and single employer individually designed defined benefit plans that are in Cycle E. Generally, an individually designed plan is in Cycle E if the last digit of the employer identification number of the plan sponsor is 5 or 0, or if the plan is a § 414(d) governmental plan (including governmental multiemployer or governmental multiple employer plans) for which an election has been made by the plan sponsor to treat Cycle E as the second remedial amendment cycle for the plan.
In addition, in Announcement 2014-41, the IRS has extended to June 30, 2015, the deadline for submitting on-cycle applications for opinion and advisory letters for pre-approved defined benefit plans for the plans' second six-year remedial amendment cycle. This announcement also provides a two-day extension (from Saturday, January 31, 2015, to Monday, February 2, 2015) for Cycle D on-cycle submissions (primarily individually designed plans including multiemployer plans).
The extension to June 30, 2015, applies to pre-approved defined benefit mass submitter lead and specimen plans, word-for-word identical plans, master and prototype minor modifier placeholder applications, and defined benefit non-mass submitter lead and specimen plans. The submission period for these applications is scheduled to expire on February 2, 2015.
This extension applies to all on-cycle pre-approved defined benefit plan submissions. In general, plans submitted in accordance with this extension will continue to be reviewed for qualification items based on the 2012 Cumulative List.
The IRS also said it expects to modify Revenue Procedure 2011-49 to expand the preapproved program to include defined benefit plans containing cash balance features and defined contribution plans containing employee stock ownership plan (ESOP) features. In addition, the IRS is developing tools, which will be available before June 30, 2015, to assist plan sponsors in drafting these plans.

BBC News report on kidnapping suspects downplays Hamas connections
As readers are no doubt aware, on the evening of June 26th the Israel Security Agency (ISA) published the names of two Hamas operatives from Hebron suspected of carrying out the kidnapping of Eyal Yifrach, Naftali Frenkel and Gil-ad Sha'ar on June 12th.
On the same evening an article titled "Israel identifies two suspects in hunt for teenagers" was published on the BBC News website's Middle East page. The report opens as follows, once again presenting the kidnappings in ambiguous terms:
"Israel has named two men as suspects in the disappearance of three Israeli teenagers believed abducted in the West Bank earlier this month.
The Shin Bet security service said Marwan Qawasmeh and Amer Abu Aisha were associated with the Palestinian militant group Hamas." [emphasis added]
In fact, officials from that internationally designated terrorist organization (rather than mere "militant group" as the BBC euphemistically describes it) have confirmed that Qawasmeh and Abu Aisha are members of Hamas rather than merely "associated" with it.
"Hamas officials in Hebron confirmed the two suspects were members, and said Israeli troops have targeted the men's homes since the beginning of the operation. The officials, speaking on condition of anonymity because of fears for their safety, said troops had entered the homes several times, conducting intense searches and confiscating items as evidence."
Moreover, four years ago Qawasmeh [also spelt Kawasme – Ed.] himself admitted that he belongs to Hamas.
"In 2010, when security forces last investigated Kawasme, he confessed that Hamas' military wing had recruited him to operate for the organization in Hebron. In 2009, Kawasme participated in Hamas-led military training, attempted to obtain materials for explosives, and helped the terrorist organization recruit new operatives. In response to these actions, Israel detained Kawasme until March 2012."
The article goes on to once again mislead audiences by stating that the site of the kidnapping is near Hebron when in fact it is 27 kms (16.7 miles) away from that city.
"Shin Bet said both men had served time in Israeli prisons for "terrorist activity" and were from the Hebron area, where the boys disappeared from earlier this month.
Amer Abu Aisha's father told the Agence France-Presse news agency that his son was not involved in the disappearance of the youths.
But he added that he had not seen his son since the day after the teenagers went missing." [emphasis added]
In fact, the father has told journalists that his son has not been seen since the evening on which the kidnapping took place – rather than the day after, as this BBC report misleadingly suggests.
"Abu Aysha, a 32-year-old locksmith, was last seen at a family gathering only hours before the kidnapping, according to his father Omar, who spoke to The Times of Israel in Hebron several days ago. Abu Aysha's father, Omar, who has spent time in Israeli prisons for ties with Hamas, said that his son left the family gathering abruptly without offering any details as to his destination."
In addition, the BBC report states:
"Israel has repeatedly accused Hamas of kidnapping the teenagers, a claim it strongly denies."
"The leader of Hamas, Khaled Meshaal, reiterated on Thursday that "we do not have information about what happened"."
Whilst it is not clear to which statement made "on Thursday" the BBC refers, just two days earlier – in a June 23rd interview – Hamas leader Khaled Masha'al was considerably less explicit about Hamas' involvement in the kidnappings than the BBC would have audiences believe.
"In a lengthy interview with Al-Jazeera on Monday evening, Mashaal insisted that Gil-ad Shaer, Naftali Fraenkel and Eyal Yifrach, abducted while hitchhiking in the Etzion Bloc south of Jerusalem, were "settlers and soldiers in the Israeli army."
"No one claimed responsibility so far. I can neither confirm [Hamas's responsibility] nor deny it," Mashaal said, quickly adding that the circumstances of the kidnapping were more important than the perpetrators.
"Blessed be the hands that captured them," Mashaal said. "This is a Palestinian duty, the responsibility of the Palestinian people. Our prisoners must be freed; not Hamas's prisoners — the prisoners of the Palestinian people." " [emphasis added]
Additionally, Hamas spokesman Salah Bardawil stated on June 19th that "the Palestinian resistance" had carried out the kidnappings. The BBC has not made any attempt to inform audiences so far of the context of the dozens of attempted kidnappings of Israeli soldiers and civilians in the months prior to this incident, nor of the statements made by several Hamas leaders in the days leading up to June 12th.
"In Gaza, Hamas has practiced kidnapping in public to cheering crowds. Last year, the organization even distributed an 18-page "Field Manual for Kidnapping" to its Qassam Brigades, providing detailed explanations on how to target Israeli soldiers, when to kidnap (rainy days are best) and how to avoid being caught (don't use the Internet or phone).
If Hamas has not abducted anyone in the past eight years, it's not for lack of trying. According to a study published this week by the Meir Amit Intelligence and Terrorism Information Center, Israeli security forces have foiled at least 48 kidnapping attempts since January 2013, 14 of them this year alone."
As we see, this report downplays the level of the two suspects' known membership of Hamas, erases from audience view that organisation's international terror designations and record of kidnapping attempts and encouragement. In addition it promotes cherry-picked statements made by Hamas leaders regarding the organisation's involvement in the kidnappings.
Concurrently, the article yet again fails to make any mention of the vast quantities of weapons and explosives discovered during the search for the missing teens, of the underground tunnels also uncovered, the concurrent rise in missile fire from the Gaza Strip at civilian targets in Israel or of the public and official praise of the abductions on the Palestinian street, social and mainstream media.
Likewise, since the beginning of its reporting on this topic, the BBC has failed to clarify to audiences the significance of the involvement of a partner in the Palestinian unity agreement – and resulting unity government – in this kidnapping.
All that from a corporation pledged to the enhancement of "audiences' awareness and understanding of international issues".

The Top 10 Scary Films of all Time
There are those TV films that even after watching them years, ago, you still get this cold chills down your spine when you think of them. Well this is quite normal as horror movies are made to make you feel just like that. Here is a look at the top 10 scary films of all time:
The Exorcist comes first in the list. It will be hard to fully understand exactly what happened when Exorcist opened in theaters in America in 1973 if you were not there; paramedics had to be called to multiplexes because people were falling out. When Regan vomited on the priest, the audience also vomited in their popcorns. Nobody had watched anything that freaky and it has stuck in people's minds for years.
This film has undergone remarkable public reappraisal since its release in 1980 when it was released. People have watched it over and over again trying to unravel the mystery behind this twisted masterpiece and a lot of theories have come up to try and explain exactly what happens in the film.
'Psycho'
Who could have thought psycho by Alfred Hitchcock; a famous director in the 60s was going to be one of the bestselling films that he had ever made. The film on its own was about a homicidal hotel clerk who actually died 45 into the movie and later came back to haunt her killers. This one freaked people out and audiences literally hid under their seats.
'Halloween
Nowadays movies about masked and mysterious psychopaths who hunt teenagers have become too common but back in 1970s, this concept was new. Halloween is about a teenager who has a really bad Halloween after her brother escapes from an asylum. The music alone in this film will send chills down the spine. In fact there would be no a Nightmare on Elm Street' or Friday the 13th'without this film.
'Texas Chainsaw Massacre
The title of this movies tells you what you should expect. There was massacre and chainsaw and it was shot for only $300,000. It involves a tragedy that befall a group of five youths but its graphic violence and the scary images shocked audiences in 1974.
'Alien'
Any movie that features aliens freaks everyone and this one is no different. Such movies have made people to believe that there might be aliens out there. It involves a group of astronauts who get trapped in space then attacked by aliens who pop out their inner body parts one by one before a final showdown with Sigourney Weaver.
This film also makes it in the list. It has remained chilling many years after it was released. It about a group of people who spend a night in an old and haunted house. It has so much suspense such as watching Julie Harris go insane and lesbian character which was unheard of in those days.
Directed by George Romero, this film is about a young couple that is forced fend off a massive zombie attack in a large Pennsylvania farm. There was a lot of controversy after the release of this movie due to violence but the more the press talked, the more it was watched.
This movie hit the theaters in 1982 with a very different agenda. Unlike other films, the thing displayed aliens as friendly creatures that would change forms so as confuse scientists. The men would not know if they were dealing with an alien or a colleague.
Similar to other horror films, Poltergeist begins with a happy hammily living in a peaceful environment until ghosts starts taking over their home. The ghost take over and sucks the daughter to her closet portal where she can only communicate through the TV set. It is extremely freaky.

It's important for us to point out consistently and frequently that we're not the only industry that's up against data breaches," said Bill Thorne, SVP for communications and public affairs at the NRF.

Sleep tight! People dreaming of 'being in crowded places' now lockdown has lifted, study suggests

Sleep is critical for good health, however, many have struggled to nod off throughout the pandemic. (Stock, Getty Images)
Since the coronavirus outbreak emerged at the end of 2019, experts and officials alike have urged people to avoid crowded spaces, with lockdowns even enforcing millions around the world to stay at home.
Restrictions may have ended in England, but Boris Johnson has stressed "caution is absolutely vital" to ensure we "don't undo our progress".
That cautionary warning may have sunk in. Writing in the Journal of Sleep Research, scientists from the Sapienza University of Rome suggest some people are waking in a cold sweat after dreaming they were in a "crowded place".
Early in the pandemic, experts warned the ordeal may be triggering vivid dreams. The Sapienza team has also revealed lockdown left people better able to recall their dreams, a sign of trauma.

They were also more aware of the fact they were dreaming while asleep, a potential coping mechanism during challenging times.

The stress of the pandemic combined with unprecedented "confinement" and "remarkable daily life changes" is thought to have affected many people's sleep habits.

Why we dream, or even sleep, is somewhat of a mystery.
One theory is dreams allow us to process intense emotions within the safety of our subconscious.
Dreams can also reflect what we have experienced that day. With many finding life monotonous amid the pandemic, our mind may create coronavirus-specific dreams or draw on "content" from our past.
Read more: Dreams may prepare us for 'future events'
To better understand how the pandemic has affected our dreams, the Sapienza scientists had 90 people complete a sleep survey from 28 April to 4 May 2020 – Italy's first week of lockdown – and 5 May to 11 May 2020, when restrictions had eased.
Perhaps unsurprisingly, the participants found it harder to fall asleep and woke more in the night during the lockdown.
They also recalled their dreams, and were more aware they were dreaming while asleep, amid the restrictions.
Dream recall has been linked to traumatic events, which "confirmed the idea of [the] pandemic as [a] 'collective trauma'", wrote the scientists.
Being aware we are dreaming "may provide an opportunity to increase self-control and emotional regulation in individuals experiencing adverse events", they added.
Post-lockdown, some of the participants specifically reported "being in crowded places" in their dreams.
This may be due to the easing of restrictions giving us "the possibility to access places frequented by other people", representing "a relevant experience after a long period of confinement".

Sound of the Underground: a bit of a mess, but not a drag
I'm guessing that at no point in its history has a Royal Court production listed cast members known as Lilly Snatchdragon, Sue Gives a F--- and Wet Mess. That these variously queer, non-binary and trans performers, drag artists by trade, are on stage at all at the Court is part of the point of Travis Alabanza's new show (let's not call it a play), which rests on a somewhat confected provocation: the takeover of an establishment space by underground artists who do so much to influence mainstream

James Norton just passed his Bond audition with flying colours
With one bound the potential next James Bond was free. In the latest episode of Happy Valley, James Norton's villainous Tommy Lee Royce did two remarkable things.

I prefer the Norfolk ones, this magician series seems a bith lightweight and predictable in comparison.
Well, I much prefer her Norfolk settings novels. This Vanishing Box is predictable and lacking substance, the plot's thin and padded out with unnecessary description which is tedious reading.
Overall doesn't seem to be one of her works.
I'm half way through Michael Caines Blowing the Bloody Doors Off, and it's boring.
I gather he must have wrote his books before because he doesn't seem to have anything left to tell us only what to do and what not to do if you want to be an actor.
Last read Murder from Three Angles by Vernon Loder, another 1930s detective story, which was OK. Now I've raced through Travels in the North by Karel Capek, an account of a trip up to the far North of Norway - it's quite interesting to follow where he went on Google Streetview to see how it's changed. Although Capek (1890-1938) is now best remembered for inventing the word Robot in his play R.U.R. (Rossum's Universal Robots), he wrote a wide variety of books and I've really enjoyed all the ones I've read, whether fiction or non-fiction - I rate him as one of those authors who was incapable of writing a dull bit of prose.
Nearly finished The Holocaust by Laurence Rees an excellent account of an extremely grim period in recent history, it traces the rise of the Nazis and how the concentration/death camps came to be, a very good piece of writing although harrowing in places.
Just finished Our Game by John Le Carre.
Engaging but then lost its way about two thirds through, as though his mind had drifted off and he just wanted to get it finished.
Just finished: Pixel Juice by Jeff Noon - the usual Jeff Noon themes really and if you've read Vurt or Pollen you'll know what they are, but very enjoyable nonetheless. Then I whizzed through Sh*t my Dad Says by Justin Halpern, an amusing enough couple of hours diversion. Now I'm back to the 1930s detective stories again with Anthony Gilbert's The Body on the Beam.
The Woman in the Woods by John Connolly.
More supernatural goings on in Maine with arcane books, old gods and strange killers on the prowl.
Just finished that one. Great series, but I think it peaked with The Lovers. Splendid writer though.
The dead daughter/odd daughter thing is tiresome, and Parker seems a bit of a flat, glib superhero type after his trip to the beyond.
Im reading "I can't stand up for falling down" by Allan Jones.
It is a brilliant cavort through the rock and roll excesses of the 70s and 80s, written by a fantastic music journo.
The Lovers fills in the background for Parker's dad, and is central to the mythology established in The Black Angel. That seems to have taken a bit of a back seat after The Wrath of Angels, even though with that book we still don't know what Parker really is (though thanks to the Collector we know what he isn't).
I've just bought the new one, though my main motivation is finding out how Angel's doing.


← Does your jurisdiction have a Trader Joe's exemption?
Found the perfect place for your business? How to check if zoning, ABC, or neighbors will mess you up!
Many people wanting to open a new business think they have found a perfect location only to find out that their proposed use is prohibited or subject to a difficult permitting process. While that may seem conceptually obvious to most people, the existing uses in an area can be misleading to prospective new businesses. Just because an area is full of commercial ventures doesn't mean that the proposed business will be allowed. Even if the area contains many of the same type of businesses, the new business may be prohibited or nearly impossible to open. How can this be?
First, watch out for local zoning laws. Zoning laws are typically enacted by counties or cities and prescribe the types of uses, e.g., businesses, that are allowed as well as the form of the structures that will house the business, e.g., height, set backs, etc. With respect to uses, they can permit one type of business but not another. Most commonly, they make distinctions between manufacturing, distribution, and retail. But they also often specify the type of manufacturing and retail. Many zoning ordinances contain lists of the specific types of businesses that are allowed, thereby prohibiting all businesses not on the list. This circumstance can be problematic for breweries, brew-pubs, micro breweries, custom wine labelers, etc. or other businesses which have things like tasting rooms and desire to be in retail districts. Making or distributing beer or wine maybe deemed a prohibited manufacturing or warehousing use, even if doesn't fit with common notions of such uses. Luckily for the artisan brewery industry, many municipalities are amending their zoning laws to accommodate their special needs. Nevertheless, there are still many areas that prohibit breweries.
Additionally, the existence of businesses similar to that of the prospective business may be the result of "grandfathering" of existing uses that are now prohibited. This is often the case with bars and stores that sell for "off premises consumption." An increasing trend in California is for local jurisdictions to adopt "deemed approved" ordinances. These ordinances are adopted in localities in which alcoholic beverage sales by local businesses are perceived to creating a substantial law enforcement and nuisance problem. The ordincances are designed primarily as a way to restrict or revoke sales by "grandfathered" businesses when they violate certain standards. However, these ordinances often contain several "tentacles" that extend far beyond their central purpose, including restrictions or prohibitions on new alcoholic beverage licenses or sales of existing licenses.
Also, look around for residences, churches, schools, parks, and even other similar businesses. Many zoning laws prohibit businesses within a certain distance of these uses.
Second, even if the local zoning laws don't prohibit the proposed type of use, the California's Alcoholic Beverage Control Dept. (ABC) licensing process may make it difficult or impossible to attain approval. A funny quirk of ABC laws is that they encourage the dispersion or scattering of licenses throughout regions and discourage their concentration in business districts. ABC laws use census tracts, which are small geographic areas. Most Cities contain multiple census tracts. Each census tract is allotted a certain number of licenses based on residential population – the greater the number of residents, the greater the number of licenses that are allowed. However, in most of California, business districts have a lower number of residents than residential districts. Therefore, these ABC laws favor the location of licenses in residential district rather than business district. Zoning laws are opposite. The result is that zoning laws prohibit licenses where ABC allows them, and ABC laws disallow licenses where zoning laws allow them.


Feb. 3rd—Both Houses reconvened on Capitol Hill. Harry Reid emerged from hole in Senate, saw shadow. Eleven more months of Congress forecast.
Rep. Paul Ryan calls bipartisan immigration reform bill "in doubt." Not so sure. Both parties are under pressure to act. Republicans want immigration reform as part of long-running struggle to obtain votes from people whose names end in a, e, i, o, u and sometimes y. (Last notable success was during Reagan administration with "Malone, O'Hara, Gilhooey, etc.) Democrats want immigration reform because they can't figure out how to get the leaf blower started.

Arrowhead Students Form a Band: Aggressive Poetry
Isabella Wartzenluft, Reporter
It all started at Jimmy John's. Waiting for their rides home, Aaron Allen and Gary Griepentrog, two Arrowhead sophomores who share a mutual interest in the creation of music, decided to create a band.
The band's name is Aggressive Poetry. Their music can be listened to on www.soundcloud.com/aaronallen00. They can be found on instagram @aggressivepoetry, and on Twitter @ag_poetry. The best way to reach the band members is through their email, [email protected].
In regards to establishing a band name, Allen says, "Really, I think that I was watching an interview with one of my favorite bands, and when asked how to describe their music, the lead singer said something along the lines of, 'well really it's just weird, and I like to refer to it more as aggressive poetry than rap music.' As I started to think more about what aggressive poetry means, I realized that it was exactly the kind of music that I wanted to make. The kind that defies the common boundaries we usually have, and is really just aggressive poetry in that it's an expression of the feeling or state of mind we're in when we write music. When I pitched the idea to [Griepentrog], he approved, and the name has really just stuck from there."
"We decided to start a band because we've been friends for a very long time, and we both have very different music tastes. I thought it would be interesting if nothing else [we wanted] to see how we would clash musically. It's a ton of fun to work with [Allen] and to make music in general," says Griepentrog.
Allen and Griepentrog first met at Swallow Elementary School, as they both participated in band class.
Griepentrog says he began to play trombone in the fifth grade. When he reached the seventh grade, he joined choir class, as he says he enjoys singing. Preceding this, Griepentrog learned to play bass, guitar, piano, harmonica, and ukelele on his own.
Allen learned trombone as well, but soon realized, he says he realized it is a difficult instrument to apply outside of a concert band. As of now, Allen says he's taught himself to play piano, ukulele, guitar, bass, drums, and trumpet.
Both members of the band partake in in lyric writing as well as music production. Allen says that he focuses mainly on this and programming in the band, as much of Aggressive Poetry's music is produced on computers.
"Personally, I get inspiration mainly through my everyday interactions with the people around me. I've found that when I try to look too deeply inside myself for inspiration, I just get a jumbled mess of who knows what, so maybe that's a reflection of myself, I don't know," says Allen. "But honestly, I've found that when you really take time to invest yourself in the people around you and get to know them, you find so many unique and interesting stories, the songs almost write themselves. That being said, I still like to write very introspectively about these experiences, and writing in a way that hopefully will make people think."
Griepentrog says, "I get inspiration from everything that happens and has happened in the world. I try to be bigger than myself with my lyrics and not only write about events that have happened to me but also events that have happened in the world."
Both members are high school sophomores, and they say this can make school and music difficult to juggle.
"It's very hard to manage school and a band. What we've done is work separately through the school week and then on occasional weekends we'll share with each other, and sometimes record something new," says Griepentrog.
Despite Aggressive Poetry having to deal with school, extra activities, and their band, music is still being produced.
"If we can get people to think about what we're saying, and think about their own lives and something more, then that's a win for me in my mind," says Allen.

Lisbeth Korsmo (født Lisbeth Berg; 14. januar 1948 i Oslo, død 22. januar 2017) var en norsk skøjteløber som repræsenterede Oslo Idrætshold. Gennem en lang periode i 1960- og 70-tallet var hun – sammen med Sigrid Sundby – en af Norges bedste kvindelige skøjteløbere før Bjørg Eva Jensen overtog den trone helt mod slutningen af 1970-tallet.

Hendes største præstation internationalt var en bronzemedalje på 3000 meter under OL i Innsbruck i 1976 – en hundrededels sekunder fra sølvet og femhundrededels sekunder bag guldet. På 1500 meter blev hun nr. 4. Hun deltog i OL også i 1968 i Grenoble i Frankrig, 1972 i Sapporo, Japan og 1980 i Lake Placid i USA, og blev Norges første kvindelige medaljevinder i hurtigløp på skøjter under vinter-OL og er per 2017 kun en af to norske skøjteløbere med medalje, den anden er Bjørg Eva Jensen med guld fra 3000 meter i 1980 . Hun stilede for Norge i tilsammen 25 europa- og verdensmesterskaber i hurtigløb på skøjter (fem EM 1970–1974, otte sprint-VM 1970–1971, 1973–1978 og tolv allround-VM 1966–1967, 1969–1971, 1973–1978 og 1980). Bedste placeringer var 5.-plads i EM og allround-VM i 1971 samt en sjetteplads i det uofficielle sprint-VM også i 1971.

Lisbeth Korsmo er syv gange norgesmester allround (1971–72 og 1974–78) og seks gange sprint (1971, 1974–78).

I 1976 modtog hun Porsgrunds Porselænsfabriks Ærespris.

Oh that wily Mother Nature.. what a gal, eh?
Ha, Ha! Ron and I are going to do some BBQing for sure. We sat outside the other day and got spring fever. Literally! All that fresh air and we were ready to go to bed at 7 pm! LOL!
Oh, well, here too! We had the most beautiful spring week but the weekend is going to be wet and cold again!
Will do my best… lol! Enjoy the warmth!!
Love it Colleen. Am I late for this week are is it you posting on Friday instead of Tuesday….I have not been writing for a few weeks and completely out of the loop. I will see what I come up with. Your tanka is just lovely, love it so.
Oh, ok, see how out of sorts I am from being away from writing….duh on me.
Like this, Colleen! Mother nature sure threw a punch this week!
Excellent, Colleen. Really tight lines and a compact whole. You have a fine gift for Tanka. Composing Tanka is not coming easily to me. It takes an effort for me to think a poem into being. Haiku, at least the way I write, is a response to an experience and the fun of finding words to express thoughts and feelings. This is my natural mode.
Haha! Colleen your fab tanka is so appropriate to the weather we've been experiencing here. Spring one day, winter returns the next. I am so ready for spring.


After seeing Eileen Gunn at Readercon last July, I finally checked out her collection of short fiction, Stable Strategies and Others. It's a slender volume filled out with three encomiums plus an author's foreword plus endnotes for each story, all commenting about how slowly she writes. What she does write is good stuff.
The title story, "Stable Strategies for Middle Management" asks what if Kafka worked for Microsoft? The answer would have Alice from Dilbert pump her mighty Fist of Death. My favorite, "Fellow Americans" is a bit of a mishmash as a story, but I liked how this alternate history is filled with funny, especially showing how Richard Nixon could have been happy at last. "Computer Friendly" rightly shows how creepy the merger of human and machine would be. And "Ideologically Labile Fruit Crisp" is the funniest and most practical recipe for fruit crisp I've ever seen.
The other stories included things like carp-eyed aliens, a stone whale, Cobain High, a lake of frozen zombies, and Grace Hopper in command of those goldbricks Heinlein and Asimov. How do you think of things like that?

So let me tell you a little bit about me!
I love capturing love stores for RAD couples and creating memories that will last forever! I live here in Arizona but provide services worldwide! From Paris to the Bahamas and everywhere in between, I would love to photograph your love story!
I fell in love with wedding photography several years ago after spending 90+ hours working as a chef in some of the countries top hotels and resorts. I woke up every day dreaming of something bigger. After some life changes in my family, I was able to walk away from the hot kitchen and do what I LOVE...become a Phoenix wedding photographer!
There is something I love about being trusted with all of the special moments that I only have one opportunity to capture. I love meeting the bride + groom for the first time to see the love that they share and the smiles on their faces. The way he looks at her and she blushes over him is magical! I love seeing the bride on her wedding day so anxious and excited but at the same time so scared.
You have so many choices when looking for the PERFECT photographer for your wedding day! It is such an important decision and can be overwhelming at times. I want to take that stress away from you! This process should be an unforgettable experience and it definitely does not have to be so stressful! Each and every couple that I meet are more than just a client to me.
They are a memory and a commitment that I am so humbled to be a part of!
Have a look around and if you like what you see, send us a note and lets chat!


Cultural icon, Jean-Michele Basquiat rose to prominence in the 1980s and still reigns when it comes to abstract art and expression. So, isn't it strange that there hasn't been a major exhibition of his work?
Sure, we've seen pieces of his pop color and text-infused creations printed on apparel and featured as a small addition to larger exhibitions over the years. And for some, their familiarity with the New York artist came as an assist from musicians, a wide range of artists and filmmakers who praise Basquiat's creative brilliance.
But, wait no more! In 2017, Boom For Real , the largest exhibit to feature Basquiat's art will take place at London's Barbican.
The exhibition is slated to also show Basquiat's connection to music, film, text and television and how they influenced his work.
Basquiat: Boom for Real is scheduled to run September 21, 2017 – January 28, 2018.


The fast-paced growth of the sub-four meter sedan segment led Tata Motors envisage a credible product that could sustain stiff competition amid rivals including Maruti Suzuki Dzire, Honda Amaze and Hyundai Xcent. Inspired by Tata's 'DesigNext, DriveNext, ConnectNext' philosophy, Zest was the first product to be built on the new design language.The first product from Tata's new breed of cars, Zest sports a fresh design. Interior styling is in tandem with the new design philosophy, giving prominence to the looks and features. Tata Zest On road price starts from 5,21,055/-. Check for price details of Tata Zest in CarzPrice.
Introduced into the most competitive sub 4 meter sedan segment, Zest has come of age as it not only looks attractive but has the important elements that could pull a customer towards it. What are these elements? At the front, we have the all new 'Signature Tata Grille' that speaks of humanity and trust line. Basically what it refers to is a plastic grille that bears the logo with chrome lining on top giving it a glossy look. Combination of projector headlamps with LED daytime running lights and light guide position rings further help in enhancing the front fascia. Sharp lines along with body coloured door handles, side view mirrors with ORM inserts and a set of elegant 8-spoke alloy wheels highlight the side profile of this sedan. While the rear features wrap round around LED tail lamps and chrome lining that puts together an attractive stance. In profile, having an overall length of 3995 mm, width of 1706 mm and overall height of 1570 mm – the Zest does feel appealing to the naked eyes with it ground clearance of 175 mm.
Just like the exteriors, interiors are also spiced up by adding various class leading elements in the sedan. The Zest sedan has the best inner cabin spaciousness as compared to any other sedan in its segment. There is plenty of legroom due to the enhanced wheelbase, same goes for the immense shoulder room as width is also best-in-class.The interiors have been presented in a dual-tone Java Black & Latte color scheme with fully fabric seat upholstery. The dashboard is also quite stylish and premium in accordance with the Tata Motors next-generation 3-spoke tilt adjustable electric power steering wheel. The all new instrument panel displays several types of information on it such as Segmented multi-info display, Gear shift (up/down) and in-gear indicator, Driver seat belt reminder with buzzer, Individual door-open display, Light-off and key-in reminder with buzzer, Distance-to-empty info, Fuel consumption display, Digital fuel gauge etc. to mention a few. The top-end variant XT has an added functionality of Ambient temperature display with it. The sedan, despite being a sub 4-meter product, comes with a massive boot space of 390-litres.
Tata Zest has Air Conditioner with Heater as standard feature across the entire variant lineup. The base variant XE misses out on some of the contemporary features like Rear power windows, Electric adjustment for ORVMs, and Remote central locking. Some of the first-grade comfort features that can be seen inside the cabin are Adjustable rear headrest, Height adjustable driver's seat, Vanity mirror on sun visor of co-driver side, Foldable key etc. to name a few. The top-end XT trim boasts an array of additional features in form of Rear defogger, Fully automatic temperature control (FATC) and Rear parking sensors. Looking upon the infotainment system which turns out to be the biggest USP of the interiors, it is the ConnectNext infotainment system by Harman (of Harman/Kardon fame); though the base variant XE misses out on this. It comes with AM/FM, USB, AUX IN, iPOD connectivity and with 4 speakers and as many tweeters. There is a remote control system for the music system for the convenience of rear seat passengers. Moreover, the functionality of Speed dependent volume control and steering mounted audio and phone controls further facilitates the driver during city driving. In addition, it also supports Bluetooth connectivity which further gives Phonebook access, Call logs (incoming, outgoing, missed), and Audio streaming. The top-end trim XT has additional features like Call reject with SMS feature, Conference call, Incoming SMS notifications and read-outs, SD card reader, Controls of FATC on touchscreen, Reverse park guide display, Picture/image viewer via USB and SD card, and Voice command recognition technology. Did we forgot to mention that the 5-inch touchscreen system with MapmyIndia next gen Navigation System is also being offered with the top-end trim XT.
The Zest is spacious, well-equipped and lets one choose from a likeable turbo-petrol and a dependable diesel engine. The diesel-automatic combo is good to have, but we wish it was equipped with a creep mode as well. Other positives include the solid exterior build, and the stellar 8-speaker audio system.On the whole, the Zest is a value-for-money offering which ticks all the essentials of being a well-rounded compact sedan.


It may still be cold and we may be in the cold depths on Winter but I want ice cream so badly I HAD to throw it back to this make this week. These Bath Melts smell fabulous, and look just as fabulous!
We used our 2.5" bath bomb mould with the excess plastic edge cut off.
First measure out the dry ingredients into the mixing bowl and break up any lumps. Thoroughly mix together until you have a consistent texture.
Measure the butters into a small saucepan and gently heat until they are just melted. Allow to cool slightly.
We split our recipe into 3 bowls and used a few drops of Yellow Liquid Colour for the vanilla, a sprinkle of Ultramarine Pink Powder for the Raspberry and a sprinkle of Natural Cocoa for the chocolate.
Using your hands or a whisk thoroughly mix until you reach a consistent colour.
Measure 15ml of either fragrance or essential oil into mixture. As we split our recipe into 3 we used 5ml of each fragrance in each bowl, Cornish Ice Cream Fragrance, Chocolate & Raspberry. Mix well with hands or a whisk until the fragrance has all been absorbed.
Carefully add the melted butters a little at a time (you may not need to use it all) and mix continuously.
Your mixture should resemble cookie dough.
Squidge the mixture together at the side of the bowl and then use a mould or ice cream scoop to "scoop" the mixture into balls.
They should have a rough ice cream type texture. Pop them on a palate or tray and leave to set for about an hour in the fridge.
bottom of the bath and can get slippy.
If like me you love ice cream, these are the make for you! See you next week for our next #MakeItMonday!

*message

If I use whitespace or : as separator then content of thread and message fields got split too. What would be the best way to process it?

A: sed 's/:/:\t/;s/\[/\t&/;s/\]/&\t/;s/)/)\t/' log

the above line will separate the required fields by tab. If you want to output them, you can pipe it to awk to check:
echo "yourExample"||sed 's/:/:\t/;s/\[/\t&/;s/\]/&\t/;s/)/)\t/'|awk -F '\t' '{for(i=1;i<=NF;i++)print $i}'
